Hell even I have a javascript library of my own. Trying to pick from this pool can easily turn into mission impossible: understandably so: there's just too many of them"

"content":"The thing is, each of these libraries and frameworks end up doing essentially the same thing in thier respective categories: react creates reuseable javascript components: same with vue, same with angular, svelte. And for the most part, you won't be using every single feature provided by these libraries: just the ones that suit your project."

"content":"Web frameworks are a great way to get the best out of multiple technologies while keeping your development time short and reliability high. But just like it is with every aspect of web development, there's a dilemma of \"Which framework should I go with\"."
},
{
"tag":"p",
"content":"Different frameworks come with different structures and different selections of languages and packages. In truth, you don't necessarily need a framework: nearly all major programming languages can handle applications on thier own: but as you build more projects, you keep encountering more repetitions, and you end up abstracting those repetitions into reuseable components: you now have a framework of your own. Now this isn't bad at all: infact, this is the end goal of a truly performant app: frameworks often come with a lot of packages you may not need: which end up bugging down your application: if you can develop a framework of your own, you can eliminate this downside: but, you have to be prepared to spend a lot of time on your project: if you have the time, then go for it: else, go for a framework."

"content":"Next JS is slowly becoming the household name for web development frameworks: it features an immensely powerful and efficient structure, based on React JS: which enables server side rendering of pages: as opposed to the traditional SPA(single page application) model React was created for. Next JS handles the heavilifting of routing, apis, frontend and backend components, module bundling, and linting, leaving you with a relatively easy platform to integrate your project. Next JS is growing very quick and in no time, it will become the most used framework for enterprise applications"
